Summary

  • Fixes incorrect frontmatter on the repeatable-components breaking-change page (was copy-pasted as defaultIndex removed).
  • Clarifies why published component ids cannot update drafts.
  • Documents interim workarounds until durable nested identity (componentKey) ships:
    1. Full-array replace without ids (preferred for Content API)
    2. Edit against draft ids via Document Service
    3. Note for D&P-disabled types
  • Tweaks the Document Service tip to point at those workarounds.

Companion feature draft: strapi/strapi#27077

Test plan

  • Preview the breaking-change page locally / on Vercel
  • Confirm links to Document Service + Draft & Publish resolve
  • Confirm sidebar label reads “Updating repeatable components”
Fix the breaking-change page metadata and document full-array replace
plus draft-id edit patterns until a durable component identity ships.
